Puppies

Cali - Special Needs - adoption pending!

...is a 18-month old Great Pyrenees puppy that had an unfortunate accident while playing and broke her hind leg. While being treated for that is this it was discovered that she is close to, if not totally deaf! Up to this point (the family had only had her for a week) they thought that she was just being a stubborn Pyr pup. Her leg has healed and she is ready fore her furever home. She is learning some basic sign language and responds well to treats and affection. She is very active like all pups and will also need a buddy as she has never known life alone. Prior to her accident she was somewhat house-trained but will need work on that again. Like all of our rescues, she comes with training support.

UPDATE, January 2015: We've had her hearing checked and she's considered to be 100% deaf. She's doing well learning sign language but she needs more consistent training. She might also do well in a home where another dog is being trained so that she could learn from them. She's a puppy still and needs more leash time and her own family.
